•  I don't think I will ever understand. Maybe it's a cultural thing. **
  **Stacey, if you have the time, can you just explain simply the following points for me.
  **
  *One reason is, **
  "that a small proportion of the membership voted it as one of the top complaints in the Community Survey.

• OK good reason perhaps. How many people voted for that or what percentage of the membership was that? Are figures available?*

• A second reason is, "**
  One of our goals is to promote artists and show the world the wonderfully creative art work that is expressed through digital mediums.*

•  OK Why is not possible to do this with some nudity in some thumbnails? There is some wonderfully creative nude artwork out there.

Another goal is to have consistency of the rules and presentation across all areas of our site: Galleries, Free Stuff, Tutorials, Blogs, Homepages and the MarketPlace. In order to reach both these goals, we need to change the way thumbnail images appear to match the rules in the MarketPlace and the weekly newsletter. Thumbnail images across Renderosity will no longer contain nudity or graphic violence going forward** **

*Now this is the one I don't get. Why do the rules for advertisements have to be the same as the rules for art? This is not the case in mainstream culture. It is against the rules in the USA I guess to use nudity in an advert in a regular newspaper but it is not against the law to show, for example, A Leonardo daVinci drawing as a promo for a gallery exhibition. Is this art site saying there is no difference between art and commercial products?
